In the course of finding last week’s photo from Venice’s Carnevale, I also found this week’s photo — it’s from the 2009 Mystic Krewe of Barkus parade in New Orleans (the theme was “Battmut: The Bark Knight”).

This year’s Barkus parade happened on February 27 (the theme? “A Broadway Tail”). More info and pictures can be found at the Barkus website. Mardi Gras itself is next Tuesday, March 8.

I’d love to see your pup, and hear what you’ve been up to together this week — please post your photos on Dog Jaunt’s Facebook page so we can all enjoy them!
